best way to make something pulse?

[herke]

Hi,

 

Im trying to get something to animate continuously, but im struggling with the yoyo/repeat as its not quite what i need. What i need is something like this:

 

UP..DOWN..............(wait)..................UP..DOWN...........(wait)....etc

 

when i use the yoyo/repeat combo it works like this:

UP.......................(wait).........................DOWN............................(wait)................... etc

 

so essentially i need it to do the tween back and forth, then wait an amount of time before doing it again.

Is there a way of doing this?

Cheers

Neil

Sounds like the perfect job for TimelineMax.

 

var t:TimelineMax = new TimelineMax({repeat:-1, repeatDelay:1});

t.append( new TweenLite(mc, 1, {x:100}) );

t.append( new TweenLite(mc, 1, {x:0}) );
